Plasma-Assisted Reforming of Ethanol in Dynamic Plasma-Liquid System: Experiments and Modeling

This paper presents the results of experimental and theoretical investigations of the process of nonthermal plasma-assisted reforming of aqueous ethanol solutions in the dynamic plasma-liquid system based on the electric discharge in a gas channel with liquid wall. The experiments show possibilities...

Description
Summary:	This paper presents the results of experimental and theoretical investigations of the process of nonthermal plasma-assisted reforming of aqueous ethanol solutions in the dynamic plasma-liquid system based on the electric discharge in a gas channel with liquid wall. The experiments show possibilities and efficiency of low-temperature plasma-chemical conversion of liquid ethanol into synthesis gas. The numerical modeling clarifies the nature and explains the kinetic mechanism of nonequilibrium plasma-chemical transformations in the system.
